Chapter 38: The Hunt

"Last night...... Are you okay? Ye Lingyi asked.

When the woman heard this, her eyes turned red again, she nodded and shook her head, and gave two answers at once.

Ye Lingyi didn't care, she just said it was okay. He turned to the old woman and said, "Auntie, I'm really bothering you." Here we go! ”

After that, he picked up the woman and left.

Who knows, this woman didn't know which tendon suddenly made a mistake, and she pulled it hard, but she didn't go away as if she had roots under her feet.

The old woman was a compassionate heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold Ye Lingyi's hand and said, with a soft expression: "Everyone who comes is a guest, what trouble is not troublesome?" How can you let a guest leave on an empty stomach? If the girl doesn't dislike it, I made some morning tea, why don't you eat some together? ”

"No, no, auntie......"

Ye Lingyi opened her mouth to refuse, but she didn't think that the woman would respond without hesitation: "Okay!" I'm just hungry! ”

If you answer, you will respond, and you will take her into the house with you.

"You're really welcome! Light, cloud! ”

In the room, Ye Lingyi looked at the woman's faceless without eating rather speechlessly.

The woman didn't care about stuffing a piece of soybean cake into her mouth, and "cut" it: "What is light and heavy, my name is Leya." ”

"Didn't you say your name was Qingyun?"

Is it good to disguise your identity for ......?

Before Le Ya finished speaking, Helian Che stepped over the threshold and came in.

So Le Ya's eating appearance comparable to that of a tiger wolf instantly became much more elegant, taking small sips of the pastry in her hand, Ye Lingyi raised her eyebrows and looked at it, thinking: I'm afraid that her ants' mouths are bigger than hers.

Ye Lingyi looked at her with a daze, and said mischievously, "Why don't you eat it?" I haven't touched this table, are you already full? ”

Le Ya glared at her fiercely.

Ye Lingyi smiled triumphantly, and Helian Che sat down.

Le Ya hurriedly pushed the pastry to him attentively, but unfortunately Helian Che didn't even look at it: "I can't stay here for long, Helian Chu will definitely take other measures when he finds out that people are lost, you better be careful yourself." ”

Then he got up and wanted to leave.

At this time, the small courtyard door was pushed open again. A sneaky shadow probe came in and looked, looked out again, and finally got in.

However, as soon as the front foot came in, the back foot was grabbed by the old woman's ear.

"Sneaky dead boy, run back and be lazy! See if I don't kill you! ”

"Mother...... Hey, I'm back! The person who came smirked, clasped his hands together, and looked at his wife pitifully.

It's a pity that the old woman didn't buy it, and she chased after the person jumping up and down all over the yard with a rolling cane, so it didn't look lively.

The person who was being chased ran again and again begging for mercy: "Mother, let me go!" Mother! I'm here to see if the master has come! Mother, I'm really not lazy. ”

At this time, Ye Lingyi saw clearly that the person who was driven around the yard by the old woman was actually Qingfeng.

He called the old woman his mother?

The light in Helian Che's eyes was soft, as if he guessed her incomprehension, and said, "Mrs. Yu is my nurse and Qingfeng's biological mother. ”

I didn't expect that the master and servant still had such a relationship.

Ye Lingyi looked surprised: "Then, why does Mrs. Yu call you Xiao'er?" ”

At the mention of this, a smile finally appeared in Helian's clear eyes: "Xiao'er is the name given to me by Mrs. Yu, the meaning of the youngest son, because she has loved me very much since I was a child, and even treats me better than her real youngest son Qingfeng." ”

I see.

Looking at the mother and son who were chasing me in the yard, Ye Lingyi smiled, and there was a faint envy in her heart.

Helian Che's master and servant left the small courtyard.

When it was dark, a light was lit in the small courtyard.

Because the place is relatively large, only one lamp is lit, so the light is very dim, standing outside, the light can not even see through the papier-mΓ’chΓ© window, only under the eaves hang a few snow ridges mixed with the water color and refuse to fall.

The snow was almost finished, and only a few scattered white spots could be seen in the night.

The brown-haired Mrs. Yu sat in front of the lamp, squinting her eyes with a needle and thread in her hand and sewing something.

Le Ya sat next to Mrs. Yu, the two of them talked and laughed, and people who didn't know even misunderstood that the two were mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

When Ye Lingyi walked in, she heard the two of them say, "Girl, I see that you are also well-born, but you are allowed to marry someone?" If not, what do you think of those two boys in my family? ”

Le Ya blushed when she heard this and said, "Auntie, don't make fun of me." The two sons are all extraordinary, I am just a country girl, I have no relatives in the world, duckweed-like existence, how can I be worthy of the two sons? ”

Mrs. Yu stopped hearing it: "Why can't you be worthy?" The two boys in my family are also ordinary people, and it is not unreasonable to marry a wife or not a relative, but it is just ......"

The turn in Mrs. Yu's words made Le Ya's heart tighten: "It's just what's wrong?" ”

Mrs. Yu sighed for a long time, put down the clothes she had sewn and mended, and said abruptly: "Xiao'er, this child is really pitiful, although it is not my own child, but it is also my grandmother, and it is no different from my own son." Although I am worried about his life's events, since his mother is gone, the Taishi has placed high hopes on him, and I am afraid that my wife and son will not be able to talk too much about marriage. ”

Leya looked a little disappointed.

Ye Lingyi walked over and said with a smile: "Auntie has bothered you for too long, we should also leave when the time is calculated." ”

"What's the hurry?" Mrs. Yu got up and walked to the door to take a look, "I don't know what the situation is outside, I think the two girls should stay here for a little longer, and it's not too late to leave when the limelight has passed!" ”

"That's it!" Le Ya immediately agreed, and rubbed her arm pretentiously and said, "My arm was about to break after being tortured for three or four hours last night, and the injury is not healed yet!" ”

Ye Lingyi smiled and didn't smile: "I remember that you still have to go to find your sister!" Isn't it? ”

"But my sister is no longer in Beijing." Le Ya immediately said and didn't worry at all.

It makes people suspect that she doesn't have a sister at all.

All right! That being the case.

"Then you stay here for a while, I still have something to do, I have to go!" Ye Lingyi didn't care if she spoke again, and walked straight towards the old woman, "Thank you for your kindness, I'm leaving!" ”

Seeing that she had made up her mind to go, she didn't force her to stay, nodded, and the girl's figure disappeared behind the door.

It was a wrong decision to finally escape from the emperor and go to Jingzhong, and she had to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

At this moment, her mood is very urgent, and her heart says that no matter where she goes, as long as she can leave quickly......

"That's her! Catch her for me! ”

Not far from the city gate, I don't know who roared, and immediately countless black-clothed guards poured out from all directions to surround her.

Suddenly, the torches floated, illuminating half of the sky, and the sound of many people stepping on the sky was like a thunderstorm, stepping on the white snow.

I'm really afraid of something!

Ye Lingyi's scalp was about to explode, and at this time, she didn't have half a piece of her body that could be used as a weapon, and the other party was overwhelming, and she was by no means an opponent.

"Hehe......" There was a smug laugh from behind the crowd, and the black-clothed guard took the initiative to get out of the way, and Helian Chu walked over from that road: "What about Helian Che helping you, a fugitive slave and a?" Didn't I get caught? It's just a matter of time. ”

Those gloomy eyes were smug.

Ye Lingyi spat unceremoniously and said, "Some people are really like bed bugs, they can't get rid of them." ”

"Young people bluff! Although you say wildly, anyway, Helian Che and the Taishi have already entered the palace to meet the Queen Mother for the matter of your escape, and no one will help you, ...... tonight You will die! ”

"Someone! Take down this unruly wild minion! ”

The words fell, and several people centered in the circle narrowed the encirclement towards her in unison. Ye Lingyi's hands were quick, and she dodged a knife that was slashing at her sideways, grabbed it, and several people quickly fell under her knife.

"Young Master Helian, have you misunderstood something? I'm not one of your! No one helped me, and I didn't need anyone to help me. Ye Lingyi shook the blood stained on his blade, and an extremely strange smile appeared on his thin face.

Helian Chu was annoyed and ashamed, and personally drew a knife and slashed at her.

The strength of the two is different, although Helian Chu's kung fu is above Ye Lingyi, but she is not as agile as her, often when he thinks he can win with one blow, she can always turn the danger into a disaster.

This succeeded in intensifying all of Helian Chu's anger. Then his moves became even more vicious.

At first, Ye Lingyi was still flexible and could barely cope, but the man's physical strength was better than hers, and after a long stalemate, her physical strength was quickly used up.

Helian Chu had a cannibalistic ferocity in his eyes, and flew up and slashed at the top of her head.

Ye Lingyi blocked it with a knife, and finally exhausted due to his inability, so he could only survive and put down the knife in his hand and turned around quickly, but despite this, he was still injured in the shoulder by Helian Chu's knife.

Ye Lingyi didn't have the strength to stand up again, so she could only sit on the ground holding her injured and bleeding shoulder.

Helian Chu smiled as if a red-eyed beast had no reason, and walked towards her with a knife: "Did I tell you? Thou shalt die tonight! ”

Her current identity is just a fugitive slave, and she won't say anything if she kills her queen mother, even if Helian Mansion will be formally blamed, but she can also punish Helian Che, the main person in charge, for his official position.

This is the fundamental purpose of Helian Chu.

Is this going to be the case for her to die here?

Ye Lingyi looked at the cold knife in Helian Chu's hand, the blood in his body seemed to have dried up in an instant, and his heart suddenly shivered.

Helian Chu didn't care about her so much, clenched the knife in his hand and stabbed at Ye Lingyi.

At this moment, a firework exploded in the sky, illuminating the night in Beijing, as bright as day.

Countless arrows obscured the light of the fireworks like locusts passing through the border.

Someone reacted and shouted, "It's an arrow!" It's an arrow! Run! ”

At this time, the black-clothed guards gathered in a heap, like a target being targeted.

Without warning, the arrows burst into the wind, and suddenly a roar and scream rang out, and a piece of the ground fell.

Ye Lingyi sat on the ground and couldn't move because of his injury, Helian Chu Wu swung his sword, and the arrows that kept slashing down naturally had no time to take care of the people on the ground.

In the confusion, a pair of hands scooped her up from the ground, and soon her eyes were black and she fell asleep.

Outside the city was a half-man-high wasteland of withered grass, and the ground was covered with snow that had not yet melted.

A man dressed in black sat on the ground, his black hair on his forehead slightly blocking his eyes, and the clear snow on the ground reflected his soft face even more enchanting.

Not far away, there were two generals with swords, both of whom looked very old.

The man sat motionless on the ground, and in front of him lay a soft mat, on which fell a thin maiden, with a large black fox fur covering her, and the shape of her body was not visible at all.

One of the generals not far away walked over, untied his cloak and gently covered the man's shoulder.

The man who was immersed in his thoughts was shocked and woke up: "General Wu? ”

Wu Zuogu is a general of the Western Dynasty, and the middle-aged military general not far away is one of the few credible people in Li Yuanlin.

"What are you thinking? Emperor? ”

Wu Zuogu sat down, his gaze sinking silently as he swept over the girl.

Li Yuanlin smiled bitterly: "General Wu don't have hatred towards her, I'm sorry for her for this!" ”

Wu Zuogu was annoyed: "What is the emperor's words?" This girl is the queen mother's person, so she has to guard against it! If you let her go today, you can't guarantee that she won't be ungrateful next time and turn the spearhead to harm you! ”

"Does General Wu really think she will harm me?"

Wu Zuogu didn't want to think about it: "Of course! She is the Queen Mother's person! ”

"But ......" Li Yuanlin looked at the girl, and there was a dark sea in his eyes: "I am the only one who harms people from beginning to end." If I hadn't deliberately let her go in the Reform Temple, deliberately released the news to Helian Chu, and wanted to use Helian Clan's hand to eliminate her trouble, she wouldn't have encountered today's incident, and she wouldn't have ......."

"Your Majesty!"

Wu Zuogu hated that iron could not become steel, and increased the volume: "Those who become big things are not informal!" You inherit the legacy of the previous emperor to make the country peaceful and the people happy! How can there be such a woman's kindness? Don't forget! You are the only emperor of the Western Dynasty, the Queen Mother is arbitrary, and if you want to be in power, you must uproot the Queen Mother's henchmen, what is this girl compared to? ”

Li Yuanlin was stunned for a moment, and finally stopped talking, and his expression froze.

Yes, he is now playing a big chess game with a very low chance of winning, and if he makes a slight mistake, it will not be him alone, but the entire Western Dynasty.

He is the monarch of the empire, but he was turned into a puppet by his biological mother, the long-term dictatorship of the mother party has long been divided and swallowed by the power of the imperial court, and the Western Dynasty Mansion is like a crumbling ant nest that will collapse at any time in a raging storm, with thousands of holes on it, full of traces of decay, and as long as he wears the dragon crown on his head for a day, he will not be able to shake off the huge burden of repairing the nest no matter what.
